I haven’t talked about this in a while, meaning two weeks, but my love affair with Gossip Girl is still going strong. It’s been fueled by the fact that February is depressing and fashion is fun so clearly it’s not depressing and I should look at it to stay happy. Blair is all about the bow life and clearly, so am I.
Dress: Target (very similar)
Shirt: Forever 21 (very similar WITH a bow)
Bow: From another dress (very similar)
Shoes: Zara (same shape in solid) (black and white)
Bag: Michael Kors (exact)
Earrings: Kate Spade (exact)
One of my friend’s friends did casting for them in the first season AND GOT TO HANG OUT WITH ALL THE CAST. So as if that wasn’t enough, I stalked her Facebook page and saw photos of them. THEY ARE REAL HUMANS, PEOPLE! Like, they eat sandwiches and stuff. I know, mind TOTALLY blown.

I love that combo of cobalt blue and black, and those shoes are KILLER.
I never watched GG but a good friend of mine went to high school with the author of the books, so many of the characters and storylines were based on people she knew well. And they used to film the show quite often in my neighborhood (Brooklyn Heights) — as is usually the case with Hollywood actors, all of the dudes looked so small in person!

I never watched the show, but I do have it on my radar as something fun to watch during these cold, dreary months. Great headbands and bows definitely need a comeback!
Madeline Mihaly
you look great in that shade of blue. And yes, February downright sucks..there's no way around it. These sub zero temps are really getting to me.

I watched Gossip Girl FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER last year. (What was wrong with me?!) Adoreeeeeee. I was devastated after seeing the last episode, as I thought I still had another season to go, haha.
You look beautiful!

I'm seriously still so obsessed with Gossip Girl! I went to a private school in NYC at the time this show came out and I used to be all obsessed with colored tights and headbands because of the show. Blair Waldorf is seriously my queen! Great look though, I could definitely see the Blair inspiration. Loved the bow and the bright blue!

You are so funny! And such a fashion-eesta! Your outfits always look right on, and this blue one is another winner. Such a great color on you and your shoes are killer. If I could only wear heels again they just might be in my closet. Thank you so much for bringing us your wonderful post complete with your beautiful smiling face. <3 you dear

Uhhh If I had been you, I would have gotten my butt on a plane and been in NYC to hang out with them ASAP! Gossip Girl is the best. Ever. (You know, besides Friends)…

AHH how cute do you look in this outfit?!?! (Pst – the answer is VERY)
I always find it so crazy when you realize certain people are just…people! I went out with a group of high school teachers on the weekend (friends of friends) and it just weirded me out. Like, were my teachers that cool?
